skipped nighttime feedings?

BBoyd2013

My DS is 3 months old and 17lbs. He's EBF but just started skipping his nighttime feeding. He can sleep a 10 hour stretch. I'm not really concerned with him getting enough nutrition... Obviously... More concerned about my supply. Should I be waking him up, pumping, or just let it go and let my body adjust? I'll definitely ask the ped but thought I'd ask here, too.

If he needed to eat he would wake up! Enjoy the sleep! My lo is the same age and wants to eat just about every hour in the motn!

My LO is the same way. I wake up and pump for 4 reasons: I hate waking up affer too long that engorged, it'll help build my stash, even 2 five hour stretches feels like heaven, and I'd never sleep the whole 10 anyways.

Good job momma!

Let your supply follow his eating schedule. Hand express if you are uncomfortable at night.
